                          Inspired by "https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/395908/ ":

I am using FreeBSD/TrueOS/DragonFly BSD and have some software from Ports that when run complains about a missing /etc/machine-id file.  I do not see any such file in /etc.

What is this file?  Should I have it?  How do I make it, if yes?
